Overnight Almond Paleo Snickerdoodle Cookies

I have been getting these intense sugar cravings all week!! I blame my fiancé, Emerson. He has quite a sweet tooth. I would prefer a nice juicy and sour pickle over a box of chocolate any day!!

I don’t own any kind of flour that contains gluten so I decided to use my almonds. I had someone ask me where I buy my almond flour because it’s so expensive. Well, the easiest way is to do it yourself! Costco and other bulk stores sell 3 lb. bags of unsalted almonds. All I do is use my tiny cooks coffee grinder to grind the almonds. You can just grind the entire bag in one sitting and BAM, you have a jar of almond flour! Do the same with coconut flakes, brown rice and more!

Here it is folks!

Ingredients

1 ½ c almond flour (just grind almonds – it’s cheaper)

1 tbsp coconut flour (just grind coconut – it’s cheaper)

1 tbsp milled flaxseed

1/3 c honey

1/4 c coconut oil (melt it in the microwave for 20 sec)

1 whisked egg

1 tsp vanilla

¾ tsp cinnamon

¾ tsp baking soda

¼ tsp sea salt

**Keep your cinnamon container handy, as you will need more to roll the cookies in.

Prepare

Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl and then the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.

Mix the ingredients together and then pour into a small soup bowl or mixing bowl.

Cover the bowl with saran wrap and refrigerate overnight.

The dough will be very sticky and will need to thicken up.

Bake away!

Preheat oven to 350°.

Remove saran wrap.

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and then sprinkle the entire thing with cinnamon. Do not use cooking spray on a plain baking sheet or else the cookies will stick and burn to a crisp!

Use a melon baller or a small spoon to place dough onto the parchment paper. Make sure to roll the dough into a ball if it.

In a small bowl, pour 1 tbsp of cinnamon.

Roll the bottom of the cup in cinnamon and then press flatten each cookie ball. You should end up with 20-22 cookies.
